Solar Hanging Jar Light – Crackle Glass | 32 LED | IP65

The 1.5V 900mAh battery in the Solar Hanging Jar Light Model 1243 provides 8-10 hours of warm white string LED illumination per charge. The 1.5V cell voltage is characteristic of Ni-MH (Nickel-Metal Hydride) rechargeable chemistry — the standard for solar decorative hanging lights in this form factor. At 900mAh, the battery provides the energy storage appropriate for the 32-LED string warm white draw across the 8-10 hour dusk-to-dawn cycle. The 8-10 hour specification covers India’s standard dusk-to-dawn cycle from approximately 6-7 PM to 4-5 AM across the summer season. The battery charges automatically from the 3W solar panel integrated into the stainless steel lid during the daytime switch-off period. For garden pergola hanging and patio table positions in high-irradiance south Indian states — Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, and Karnataka — the 3W panel achieves full 900mAh recharge within the confirmed 6-8 hour window on most days. In high-rainfall north-east and Western Ghats regions during monsoon, reduced irradiance may result in shorter nightly illumination duration.

Body Build & Weatherproofing – IP65 Crackle Glass, 11.5 x 14 x 8 cm

The Solar Hanging Jar Light Model 1243 measures 11.5 x 14 x 8 cm — the confirmed dimensions from the product specification. The crackle glass globe jar with stainless steel panel lid and rope handle is visible in the product photograph: the 11.5 cm maximum width accommodates the crackle glass globe, the 14 cm height includes the stainless steel lid with integrated 3W solar panel at the top, and the 8 cm base width reflects the tapered jar profile. IP65 waterproofing is confirmed in the product specification, protecting the 32-LED string array, driver circuitry, and 900mAh battery from outdoor moisture exposure — enabling the Model 1243 to hang in garden pergola, patio, and balcony positions through India’s monsoon season without weatherproofing shelter. The rope handle at the top of the stainless steel lid enables easy hanging from hooks, wires, branches, and pergola structures. The stainless steel lid does not rust in coastal salt-air or monsoon conditions, consistent with the IP65 rating. The flat-bottomed jar also enables table placement without hanging hardware.

Auto Dusk-to-Dawn Operation

The Solar Hanging Jar Light Model 1243 operates via optically controlled automatic switching — confirmed as “Auto Switch on at Night, Auto Switch off in Day (Charging)” in the product specification. The integrated optical sensor activates the 32-LED string warm white output when ambient light drops below the dusk threshold each evening and deactivates it at dawn, when the 3W solar panel begins recharging the 900mAh battery. This automatic dusk-to-dawn operation requires no manual switching after the initial setup — the jar hangs in the desired garden or patio position, charges during daylight, and illuminates automatically each evening. For Indian housing society garden events and farmhouse outdoor gatherings where the jar lights are hung on pergola wires or tree branches in advance, the automatic operation means no manual switch access is required once installed. The dusk activation provides warm amber crackle jar illumination from the early evening through to dawn, appropriate for permanent garden decoration as well as temporary event lighting.

Solar Panel & Charging Efficiency – 3W Stainless Steel Lid

The 3W solar panel integrated into the stainless steel lid of the Solar Hanging Jar Light Model 1243 charges the 900mAh battery within 6-8 hours of direct sunlight. The stainless steel lid panel faces directly skyward when the jar is hanging from its rope handle — providing optimal solar capture orientation without user adjustment. The 3W panel is the same specification as the premium-tier panels in the LumenCity solar wall light range, providing greater daily energy harvest from a panel of this size than lower-wattage alternatives. For Indian buyers hanging the Model 1243 on garden pergolas, patio shade structures, and tree branches where partial dappled shade may reduce direct sunlight hours, positioning the jar where the stainless steel panel lid receives the maximum unobstructed direct sunlight during the peak solar hours (10 AM to 3 PM) maximises daily charging. The waterproof stainless steel lid seal protects the panel-battery connection from monsoon rain ingress at the lid junction. Panel type (monocrystalline/polycrystalline) is not stated and has been omitted.

Installation & Hanging – Rope Handle

The Solar Hanging Jar Light Model 1243 requires no external wiring, cable, or mains power connection. The rope handle at the top of the stainless steel panel lid enables hanging from any hook, wire, branch, pergola rafter, fence post, shepherd hook, or event rigging point without tools. The flat-bottomed jar design also enables table placement on patio tables, garden benches, and event table centrepieces without hanging hardware. The IP65 waterproof stainless steel lid seal protects the panel-battery junction from moisture ingress in all outdoor positions. For farmhouse garden events, outdoor wedding decorations, and housing society Diwali and Christmas community celebrations in India, the Model 1243 can be deployed in large quantities across pergola wires, garden tree branches, and event tents in minutes — each unit is individually hung, individually solar-charged, and operates autonomously without electrical connection between units. For permanent garden pergola and patio installations, the Model 1243 hangs year-round through India’s monsoon season and all weather conditions within the IP65 specification.
